When Writer, co-Producer, and Director Jordan Peele was asked if Universal Pictures wanted him to do a sequel to this film, he stated, "Of course they have. It was the first thing they said, 'Let's do a sequel.'" He goes on to say, "Honestly, I'm open to it. I love the project, but I won't do a sequel just for some kind of cash grab. If it's right, if it feels good, and I feel like I can beat the original, I'll do it." See more »

When the neurosurgical operation is being performed the surgeon lift off the skull and we are looking directly onto the brain. The technique of removing a piece of bone like this is totally uncommon (but OK, this is not a "real" operation), but since the brain is covered by a thick membrane (the dura mater) is is virtually impossible to remove it at the same time as the bone. In the middle there is a tick doubling of the membrane down into the split between the two half's and there is a significant blood vessel. See more »

Chris Washington:
All I know is sometimes, when there's too many white people, I get nervous, you know?
[pause, Georgina laughs creepily with tears in her eyes]
Georgina:
Oh no, no. No. No no no no no no. Aren't you something? That's not my experience. Not at all. The Armitages are so good to us. They treat us like family.

I confess that I was slightly disturbed after this movie. LOL
Seriously, I was impressed with the script, not only because of the turn of the story, but also because there is a gender exchange in the middle of the movie, something natural that only then you realize that it was horror, that became comedy and in the end suspense. And what a fantastic performance of the protagonist!
